Actress Janhvi Kapoor’s inky-black lehenga from fashion label Rimple and Harpreet makes for a striking Navratri outfit. The red embroidered blouse, accented with green, adds a pop of colour, while the black skirt and zari-embroidered dupatta lend the ensemble a contemporary silhouette. The same colour combination can work equally well for an Anarkali set.
Complete the look with chunky bangles, jhumkas, juttis and a potli bag. Add a black bindi and either tie your hair into a neat bun or leave your tresses flowing freely.

Actress Khushi Kapoor’s richly embroidered red sari by Manish Malhotra makes for an equally striking Navratri outfit. Drape it lehenga-style over a satin skirt and pair it with an embroidered, backless blouse for a festive look. Take cues from Khushi by styling your hair in a braid and accessorising with stud earrings and a choker. Complete the ensemble with heels or sandals.

Actress Karisma Kapoor’s lehenga by Torani India, featuring a tunic-length corset-style bodice and a pleated skirt, is perfect for Garba night. Accessorise with gold jewellery for a look that strikes a balance between festive and sophisticated. Since the skirt grazes the floor, opt for footwear that adds a little height, such as wedges, platform heels or kitten heels.
Comfort meets colour in a bright, breezy co-ord set

Actress Raveena Tandon’s fuchsia-pink printed co-ord set, comprising a short kurta and flared trousers, makes for a comfortable, fuss-free Navratri outfit. If the neckline is high, skip the necklace and accessorise with statement earrings and chunky rings instead. Complete the look with your favourite pair of heels.
